@nyokki: What? For real? You’re the least person who appears to be nihilistic in any way. I can only imagine what strange people must have told you that. They must have mistaken your contentedness, and balanced way of thinking (unlike me) with nihilistic ways.
And what I meant is, the way nihilism is described in the picture isn’t true. That’s not what it’s all about.
On the other hand, a little bit of nihilism is healthy. Caring too much about anything makes you sick.

@dieAntagonista: Yeah, I know. It happens when I get into serious philosophical arguments. When pushed, I just seem to refuse to give credence to any kind of objective morality. While I don’t necessarily think that’s true, it is what I can say w/ a fair amount of philosophical certainty.

The person who wrote this has pessimistically re-interpretted nihlism. Just because you don’t believe there is a “moral goal” to life or any NEED to worship some invisble being does NOT mean you don’t believe in existence. That’s retarded. 😛

Water is just water. Nihlism never said “I don’t exist and neither does the world.” Nihlism said “I don’t need to know where this glass came from, nor do I feel compelled to thank the imagined water bearer.”
